Dear Parents and Carers,
We launched our Opal play project in school this week. The children have been busy building dens, exploring different parts of the school grounds, and playing with other children from across the year groups. You might notice your child coming home a little muddier than usual; I hope you will forgive us for that! CLICK HERE to read more about the Opal play project.
Please see below for some photographs of our first week in action.
I hope you have a great weekend.










Yours sincerely,
Mrs A Whistler
Headteacher
